Pond Clinic
The Hamilton County Soil and Water
Conservation District will hold their annual pond clinic on
Wednesday, June 4, 2008 at the
Winton
Center
, located at
10245 Winton Rd.
in
Green Hills
,
Ohio
. The clinic will be held from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m.
For over 25 years, the District has
sponsoring annual Pond Clinics to provide information to owners or
prospective owners regarding issues associated with farm and
recreational ponds, however, this year’s clinic offers expanded
topics. In addition to addressing the traditional pond, this
program will also feature new topics
on water gardens and storm
water retention/detention ponds maintenance.
We often see the “lakes” in new
subdivisions. Many Homeowner Associations are surprised to find
out that the purpose of these basins is to control storm water and
they require specific protection and maintenance.
Experts and speakers will be on hand to discuss and answer
questions about pond construction, fish stocking, aquatic weed
control, pond aeration, water gardens and storm water detention
pond maintenance.
Parents are encouraged to bring the kids along because as
they learn about ponds, there will be supervised educational
activities for children! The cost of both adult and children’s
programs are free, but
you must pre-register at with Hamilton County Soil and Water
Conservation District. For additional information and
registration, call (513) 772-7645. Hope
to see you there.

Long
Range Planning Meeting
The District held a Long Range Planning Meeting
on March 19, 2008 at Raffel’s Catering Center. Over 50 people
from all walks of life attended and provided valuable suggestions
on goals and actions the District should consider in the next five
years of service.
This plan is a work in progress and we welcome
landowner input. If you have any thoughts or suggestions, call
